On last "Social" meeting of the year for Weed'em & Reap coming up, see a new post

Quick note: Somehow the notice of this meeting did not get into the paper. My apologies but please get those you know don't use computers.

There will be one more social but this will be the last meeting where we "talk business". For those who don't know us, our business is gardening, not officers, meeting minutes, committee reports etc. Just green stuff.

Note: The nature of the Internet makes it impractical for our staff to review every comment. Please note that those who post comments on this website may do so using a screen name, which may or may not reflect a website user's actual name. Readers should be careful not to assign comments to real people who may have names similar to screen names. Refrain from obscenity in your comments, and to keep discussions civil, don't say anything in a way your grandmother would be ashamed to read.

Can't wait!...These meetings are great, now I have new friends, super conversations, and great information on high-end and simple gardening.

All of the above has meant great tomatoes that I grew myself throughout all of this past summer and then some, plus plenty to share with family and friends. My garden will grow and be better and stronger this coming year with what I have learned this past year.

Thank you Steve and all who have contributed to a huge bit of happiness in my small garden world. I look forward to the new year with you all, and what the new adventures in gardening will bring.

I've ;earned in a 'round about way that there will be some eats at the meeting tonight. You should be covered if you do not get to eat before you get there. :-)

NOTICE: Some folks may not know about the meeting since it did not show in the paper. Talk it up if you can.

If you have never tried cucamelons, mouse melon, Mexican Sour Gherkin, etc., tonight will be a good time to get some samples. I grabbed all I could just before the freeze and while I will pickle some and save a few for salads, I have plenty more to share.
